Taking a break

Last year when I went on vacation, I made sure to pre-schedule blog entries so that readers wouldn't have to go a single day without the chatty insouciance that is the House Lights Blog.

This year? Not so much.

There comes a time for all of us control freaks when we realize that nobody is going to beat on us if we drop the reins for a bit. And that's what last week was all about for me. Taking a break from every single thing and just living a few days summer vacation-style.

(Well, sort of. I did do some work. I'm still me, after all.)

I'll be catching up on all kinds of theater news and whatnot as the week progresses, but for now, just know two things:

1. Appleseed is having auditions tonight for their production of Dracula, directed by Pat Catchouny. Auditions will be held at 7pm tonight at the company's home at 116 West Glen Ave in the valley. For more information, check out the auditions page on their website.
